Morphological and cytogenetic studies of angiosarcoma in Stewart-Treves syndrome.

A morphological and cytogenetic analysis of a multifocal angiosarcoma in a typical case of Stewart-Treves syndrome is reported. The morphological analysis indicated differentiation along both blood and lymph vessel endothelium lines. By light and electron microscopy there were areas with well-developed erythrocyte-containing, capillary-like vessels and poorly differentiated areas with abortive vascular formations. In these the endothelium revealed immunoreactivity to factor VIII RAg, binding of Ulex europaeus I and Psophocarpus tetragonolobus agglutinin lectins, Weibel-Palade bodies ultrastructurally and presented a continuous enclosing external lamina and immunoreactivity for laminin and collagen IV, all features of blood-vessel differentiation. There were also lymphangioma-like areas as well as poorly differentiated areas where the immunohistochemical, lectin-binding and ultrastructural features were compatible with a lymph vessel differentiation. Cytogenetic analysis of cultured tumour cells revealed chromosome counts in the diploid region. About 40% of the cells analysed had a normal diploid karyotype. The remaining cells showed a multitude of mainly nonclonal structural alterations; 17 unique marker types resulting from different translocations and deletions were observed. There were also a few cells with clonal numerical deviations showing monosomy 22, monosomy X and trisomy 2 respectively. It is of interest that the losses of chromosome 22 and the X chromosome also have been observed in Kaposi's sarcoma and that the PD-ECGF gene, a novel angiogenetic factor, has been mapped to chromosome 22.

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy in the preoperative diagnosis of chordoma: a study of 17 cases with application of electron microscopic, histochemical, and immunocytochemical examination.

The cytologic findings in a series of 17 patients with chordoma (one clivus, three cervical, one lumbar, and 12 sacral tumors), all of whom underwent fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in the preoperative investigation, were studied. Cytologically, three main cell types were recognized: large, mononucleated or binucleated physaliferous cells with a vacuolated "bubbly" cytoplasm; small, rounded, uniform cells; and short spindle-shaped cells. The May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining was found superior to Papanicolaou staining in demonstrating the mucoid matrix and the vacuolated cytoplasm of the physaliferous tumor cells. Ultra-structurally, the tumor cells contained prominent bundles of filament of the intermediate type, as well as large vacuoles and lumina often bordered by microvillous projections; the cells were connected to one another by well-developed desmosomes. The resin embedding technique for the light and electron-microscopic examination of FNAB material (eight cases), the histochemical demonstration of sulphated glucosaminoglycans in the matrix (four cases), and the immunocytochemical analysis (four cases) with positivity for cytokeratin, epithelial membrane antigen, vimentin, and S-100 protein and negativity for carcinoembryonic antigen were found to be of value for the cytologic diagnosis of chordoma, and helped in distinguishing it from other chondrogenic tumors and metastatic mucous-producing carcinoma. From this study we conclude that a preoperative diagnosis of chordoma can be reached by FNAB, provided the findings are carefully evaluated in relation to the clinical and roentgenographic findings. Adjunctive histochemical, immunocytochemical, and ultrastructural techniques applied on the FNA material may be helpful in reaching a conclusive diagnosis when differential diagnostic problems occur.

Clonal chromosome abnormalities and in vitro growth characteristics of classical and cellular schwannomas.

Cytogenetic analysis was performed on 12 schwannomas, 10 classical and two of the cellular type. Electron microscopic examination of cultured cells from two classical and two cellular schwannomas revealed features compatible with a Schwann cell differentiation. Immunohistochemical analysis of the cultures demonstrated immunoreactivity for S-100 protein in 6 of 6 cases and for vimentin in 2 of 2 cases of classical schwannoma, thus further supporting the authenticity of the cultured cells. Cultured cells from one cellular schwannoma also exhibited immunoreactivity for glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP). Cytogenetic analysis of the 12 tumors revealed clonal abnormalities in 10 of the cases. In the majority of tumors, cells with a normal karyotype coexisted with different abnormal clones and sporadic deviations. Numerical changes predominated and were found in all tumors, while structural rearrangements were detected in eight tumors. The most common abnormality was clonal or sporadic loss of chromosome 22, which was found in all cases. Other clonal abnormalities included loss of one sex chromosome found in five cases, -15 found in three cases, and -12, +5, +7, +20 found in two cases each. These results provide further evidence in support of a role for loss of chromosome 22 in the pathogenesis of schwannomas. Our findings also indicate that there exist several different evolutionary pathways for schwannomas, and that some of these are shared by several other types of benign and malignant tumors of the nervous system.

Classical and chondroid chordoma. A light-microscopic, histochemical, ultrastructural and immunohistochemical analysis of the various cell types.

The aim of the present investigation was to characterize the various cell types of classical and chondroid chordomas. Eight cases of classical chordoma, 1 case of sacrococcygeal chordoma with chondroid areas and 2 cases of spheno-occipital chondroid chordoma were studied. Ultrastructurally and immunohistochemically (immunoreactivity for cytokeratins, epithelial membrane antigen [EMA], tissue polypeptide antigen [TPA] and human milk fat globule protein [HMFG]) the 3 cell types (physaliferous, epithelial-like, and spindle-shaped) recognized light-microscopically presented features of epithelial differentiation and rather formed a continuous spectrum than being distinct cell types. The chondroid areas of the chondroid chordomas had similar ultrastructural and immunohistochemical properties except for the lack of immunoreactivity for EMA and HMFG. The results of the critical electrolyte concentration technique according to Scott and Dorling indicated that there was no difference in the sulfated glycosaminoglycan content between classical and chondroid chordomas: all the tumors contained chondroitin sulfate. The presence of chondroitin sulfate, immunoreactivity for vimentin and S-100 protein and areas of cartilaginous differentiation in three cases indicate a relationship both to chondromatous tumors and to normal notochord, from which chordoma is believed to originate.

Intermediate and fine cytofilaments in cutaneous and subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas.

The expression of fine and intermediate cytofilaments in 10 cutaneous and seven subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas was studied immunohistochemically. All the tumors contained tumor cells which showed a positive immunoreactivity for desmin in formaldehyde-fixed and paraffin-embedded sections, but none of the seven anti-desmin antibodies used alone produced a distinct positive staining in all the tumors. A lack of correspondence in terms of immunoreactivity between tumor cells and the supposed muscle of origin was observed, especially in the subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas. In all cases, antibodies to muscle-specific and smooth muscle-specific actin were found to produce a positive staining in both the tumors and the supposed muscle of origin. Vimentin was detected in 8/10 cutaneous and 4/7 subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas, while the supposed muscle of origin was positive in 3/10 and 7/7 cases, respectively. Four of the cutaneous and three of the subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas contained tumor cells which stained positively for cytokeratins, while the supposed muscle of origin showed no positivity. It thus appears that a phenotypic shift in terms of vimentin and cytokeratin expression occurs in the tumor cells of cutaneous and subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas compared with the supposed muscle of origin. It is recommended that more than one monoclonal anti-desmin antibody is used to characterize these tumor entities. It is also concluded that the immunoreactivity for muscle-specific actins in superficial leiomyosarcomas is more constant, although less specific, than that of desmin and that the demonstration of the simultaneous expression of muscle-specific actins and desmin is helpful.

A cell culture, chromosomal and quantitative DNA analysis of a metastatic epithelioid sarcoma. Deletion 1p, a possible primary chromosomal abnormality in epithelioid sarcoma.

The chromosomal banding pattern and the in vitro growth characteristics of a metastatic epithelioid sarcoma are described. The cultured tumor cells retained growth characteristics as well as ultrastructural and immunohistochemical properties similar to the cells of the primary tumor. Cytogenetic analysis revealed a modal range in the diploid-hypodiploid region, a finding which was corroborated by quantitative DNA determinations of both the primary tumor and a lymph node metastasis. Fourteen different marker chromosomes were identified. The most frequent clonal rearrangement was a 1p-marker resulting from a short arm terminal deletion, i.e., del (1) (p21-22). A similar 1p- marker has previously been observed in an established epithelioid sarcoma cell line. The finding of an apparently identical 1p-marker in two of two analyzed epithelioid sarcomas suggests that this rearrangement may be a primary cytogenetic abnormality in epithelioid sarcoma. An elevated ras p21 expression was demonstrated using immunohistochemical methods. The possible involvement of the N-ras gene and/or a tumor suppressor in the 1p deletion is considered.

Light and electron microscopic examination of fine-needle aspirates in the preoperative diagnosis of osteogenic tumors: a study of 21 osteosarcomas and two osteoblastomas.

Twenty-three patients with primary osteogenic tumors, two osteoblastomas and 21 osteosarcomas, underwent fine-needle aspiration biopsy in the preoperative investigation. The cytologic features in smears were compared with the light and electron microscopic findings of resin-embedded fine-needle aspirates (16 cases) and the histopathologic findings of the surgical specimens. Cytologic smears clearly indicated a primary bone malignancy in all 20 high-malignancy osteosarcomas. In the osteoblastic osteosarcomas, the diagnosis of osteosarcoma was strongly suggested by the osteoblastic appearance of the tumor cells and the presence of an osteoid-like fibrillar matrix in 6 of 11 cases in the May-Grünwald-Giemsa-stained smears. The distinction of chondroblastic osteosarcomas from high-grade chondrosarcomas and of polymorphic osteosarcomas from malignant fibrous histiocytomas is difficult in smears. Electron microscopic examination and immunocytochemistry indicating a positivity for vimentin but not for cytokeratin helped to exclude the possibility of a carcinoma in osteoblastic osteosarcomas where the tumor cells had epithelium-like features in the smears. The resin-embedding technique of fine-needle aspirates was useful for the typing since it gave additional light microscopic information about growth pattern, structure, and matrix production, as well as ultrastructural information about cell and tissue differentiation. The osteoid-like material seen in May-Grünwald-Giemsa-stained smears could be proven to represent osteoid with varying degrees of calcification at the ultrastructural examination. The fine-needle aspiration technique, especially when used for both smears and embedding, may play an important role in the preoperative investigation of bone tumors, provided that it is used with full knowledge of the clinical and radiographic findings.

Light and electron microscopic examination of fine-needle aspirates in the preoperative diagnosis of cartilaginous tumors.

Twenty-eight patients with chondrogenic tumours--2 chondroblastomas, 4 chondromas, 18 chondrosarcomas, 1 clear-cell chondrosarcoma, and 3 mesenchymal chondrosarcomas--underwent fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in the preoperative investigation. The cytologic features in smears were compared with the histopathologic findings in the surgical specimens; in 14 cases they were also compared with the light and electron microscopic findings in resin-embedded fine-needle aspirates. The smears of the vast majority of the classical chondrosarcomas presented features that made possible the FNAB diagnosis of a chondrogenic tumor to be made. In the case of the low-grade chondrosarcomas in particular, which were poorly or moderately cellular in smears and showed chondroblastic cells often in lacunary structures of hyaline matrix, consideration of the clinical presentation, size, location, and roentgenographic appearance was essential for the diagnosis of chondrosarcoma. On the other hand, the high-grade chondrosarcomas presented cytologic features that clearly indicated their malignancy and they usually had a myxoid matrix. The possible differential diagnoses that may arise from the FNAB diagnosis of cartilaginous tumors are discussed. The resin-embedding technique for the light and electron microscopic examination of FNABs, along with the histochemical analysis for the demonstration of sulphated glucosaminoglycans and the immunocytochemistry applied to smears, was found to be of value in the definite diagnosis, especially in the distinction of chondrogenic tumors from chordoma and metastatic mucous-producing carcinoma.

Metastases of malignant melanoma simulating soft tissue sarcoma. A clinico-pathological, light- and electron microscopic and immunohistochemical study of 21 cases.

Metastases of cutaneous malignant melanoma (MM) of ordinary type can resemble various types of soft tissue sarcoma light microscopically to a degree which has not been previously recognized. Twenty-one cases are described, in which the tumours were originally diagnosed as a soft tissue sarcoma. Seven tumours were predominantly of blue and spindle-cell, fascicular type, resembling malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour and at times monophasic synovial sarcoma. Ten tumours which were of fascicular and predominantly storiform type, and included uni- and multi-nuleated pleomorphic cells resembled malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Due to the presence of multivacuolated lipoblast-like tumour cells, 2 of these 10 tumours resembled pleomorphic liposarcoma. One had a predominantly myxoid and hypocellular appearance and 5 additional tumours included such areas. The diagnoses were revised after ultrastructural examination with the demonstration of melanosomes in 13 of 16 studied cases and the immunohistochemical demonstration of positivity using anti-S-100 protein antibodies and the anti-melanoma antibody NKI/C3 in all cases. The anti-melanoma antibody HMB 45 gave a positivity in 9 of 21 cases. Light microscopically, sparse amounts of melanin were noted in 7 tumours using the Whartin-Starry technique. Eleven tumours occurred at sites close to major lymph node groups and in 9 of these cases, lymphoid tissue was associated with the tumours, suggesting that they represented lymph node metastases. Following a review of the patients' clinical histories and renewed clinical examination, primary cutaneous MM was demonstrated in 10 of 21 patients and in 1 case an MM in regression was detected. The origin of the 10 tumours without a detected primary is discussed, including the possibility of an overlooked primary, spontaneous regression of a primary and a de novo origin from lymph nodes and soft tissues.

Cellular schwannoma. A clinicopathologic study of 29 cases.

A series of 29 cellular schwannomas is described in terms of their clinical presentation and course, light and electron-microscopic appearance, immunohistochemical properties and cytogenetics. The study indicates that cellular schwannoma can be defined as a subtype of classical schwannoma, characterized by spindle cells forming a compact fascicular, sometimes fibrosarcoma-like growth pattern, a low mitotic activity, a generally moderate nuclear and cellular polymorphism and a high degree of Schwann cell differentiation as seen by electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry. The tumour is characteristically located close to the vertebral column, in the mediastinum or retroperitoneum and has a benign course. Occasionally bone destruction and neurological symptoms develop. The clinical appearance together with the high cellularity, fascicular pattern and mitotic activity had led to the erroneous diagnosis of a soft tissue sarcoma in a few cases, and cellular schwannoma may thus be considered to be a pseudosarcoma. Immunohistochemically, cellular schwannomas appear to deviate from classical schwannomas and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours by their expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein. The chromosome analysis revealed a normal diploid stemline karyotype, with a variety of abnormal clones, including one with monosomy 22.

Expression of muscle-specific actins and myosin in light microscopically undifferentiated small and dark cell malignancies of soft tissues.

Eighteen light microscopically undifferentiated small and dark cell malignancies, previously studied ultrastructurally and immunohistochemically in terms of desmin, vimentin and myoglobin expression, were analyzed using mono- and polyclonal antibodies to muscle-specific isoforms of myosin and actin. For comparison, 10 characteristic rhabdomyosarcomas, 5 alveolar and 5 embryonal, were included in the study. A polyclonal antibody to skeletal myosin produced an indistinct staining in all the alveolar and embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas. The staining was most prominent in well-differentiated rhabdomyoblastic tumor cells. In the analysis of the small and dark cell malignancies, this antibody produced a weak and indistinct positivity which can not be interpreted with certainty as an expression of muscle-specific properties. An antibody directed at the alpha and gamma isoforms of actin, which are present in smooth and striated muscle, produced a distinct positive staining in all the alveolar and embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas and in 8/18 small and dark cell malignancies, 7 of which were also shown to express desmin. An antibody directed at the alfa-smooth muscle isoform of actin did not produce any positive staining in any of the tumors. The present study indicates that both muscle-specific actin and desmin can be expressed in tumors lacking ultrastructural evidence of a rhabdomyoblastic differentiation and that the combined use of monoclonal antibodies to desmin and muscle-specific actin is of value when it comes to recognizing rhabdomyosarcomas within the group of undifferentiated small and dark cell malignancies of soft tissue tumors.

Surgery for soft tissue sarcoma in the extremities. A multivariate analysis of the 6-26-year prognosis in 137 patients.

In 137 patients with soft tissue sarcomas in the extremities, the influence of patient and tumor characteristics and surgical procedures on prognosis was studied using a multivariate statistical analysis. The minimum follow-up time was 6 years, and no patient was lost to follow-up. Eighty-nine patients were referred with the tumor intact (primary series), while 48 were referred after biopsy or with local recurrence after previous surgery (secondary series). The frequency of amputation was 15 percent in the primary series and 48 percent in the secondary series. A local, function-preserving operation with a wide margin was performed in 37 patients without biopsy (clinical diagnosis alone). Local control of the disease was obtained in all but one of these patients without any adjunctive treatment. Independent, unfavorable factors concerning local recurrence were advancing age, open biopsy, and marginal surgery. Independent, unfavorable factors concerning survival were advancing age, increasing histologic malignancy grade, and ablative surgery. A tumor-related death was observed in 0, 29, 47, and 67 percent of the patients with tumors of malignancy grades I, II, III, and IV, respectively.

Clinical and experimental studies on a midgut carcinoid tumor.

This study reports on a patient with a midgut carcinoid discovered due to the occurrence of a subcutaneous metastasis that caused symptoms. The histopathologic diagnosis of a carcinoid was confirmed by light and electron microscopic and immunocytochemical examination of the metastasis. The primary ileal tumors were only localized after the determination of serotonin in platelet-poor plasma/whole blood sampled at selective mesenteric vein catheterization. Tumor cells from lymph node metastases were studied in vitro, in intraocular heterotransplants, and in cell culture.

Intermediate and fine filaments of vascular leiomyomas (angiomyoma), leiomyoma and leiomyosarcomas of large veins.

The expression of fine and intermediate filaments in 10 cases of leiomyosarcoma originating from a large vein, 9 cases of vascular leiomyoma (angiomyoma) and one case of a leiomyoma originating from the wall of the saphena magna vein was studied immunohistochemically by using 6 different anti-desmin antibodies, one anti-vimentin antibody and 2 antibodies to muscle-specific isoforms of actin. All the benign tumors and all the leiomyosarcomas of a large vein as well as the vein of origin were positively stained for desmin. The staining results obtained using the different anti-desmin antibodies varied considerably, however, and formaldehyde-fixed tissues were apparently inappropriate for some of them. No single anti-desmin antibody produced a positivity in all cases, and the extent and distribution of the positivity varied by being irregular and patchy in the leiomyosarcomas and in the muscle walls of the veins, while the benign tumors generally revealed a more uniform and strong positivity. Antibodies to muscle-specific and smooth muscle-specific actin produced a positive staining in all the benign tumors, as well as all the leiomyosarcomas and the veins from which they originated. A strong and uniform positivity was observed in the benign tumors and muscle walls of the veins, while the positivity in the leiomyosarcomas was more irregular, as it was for desmin. Vimentin was constantly expressed in the benign tumors and in the veins of origin, but only in 5/10 of the leiomyosarcomas. It is concluded from this study that the immunohistochemical demonstration of desmin, utilizing a monoclonal antibody appropriate to the type of fixation used, and muscle specific isoforms of actin, provide strong support to the light-microscopic diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma of venous origin.

Rhabdomyosarcoma in middle-aged and elderly individuals.

In a review of a national series of malignant tumors in middle-aged and elderly individuals (over 40 years of age), in all 107 cases primarily diagnosed and reported to the Swedish Cancer Registry as rhabdomyosarcomas during the period 1972-1981, 4 cases were accepted as botryoid, embryonal or alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, using light-microscopic criteria for the diagnosis. An electron-microscopic and immunohistochemical analysis was performed on the 4 cases along with 7 cases of botryoid, embryonal and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma in patients of over 40 years of age obtained from our own files. Rhabdomyoblastic differentiation was established ultrastructurally by the presence of myofilaments and Z-like densities in 10 of these 11 cases. There were tumor cells in the formaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded material which were positively stained for desmin in all cases, for myoglobin in 7/11 cases, for vimentin in 5/11 cases and for actin in all cases, using monoclonal antibodies. The demonstration of desmin by the monoclonal antibody which was used on the formaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded material is of particular value in the diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma. Another tumor, located in the minor pelvis, lacked the light-microscopic features of botryoid, embryonal or alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, but presented ultrastructural and immunohistochemical evidence of a rhabdomyoblastic differentiation. This tumor was epithelioid in appearance and shared features with alveolar soft part sarcoma. The label epithelioid rhabdomyosarcoma is proposed for this tumor. Nine pleomorphic sarcomas were selected from the national series as possible pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcomas because of the presence of ribbon-shaped tumor cells with an eosiniphilic cytoplasm. There was no electron-microscopic or immunohistochemical evidence of a myogenic differentiation in any of these 9 tumors. The present investigation indicates that a pleomorphic type of rhabdomyosarcoma, indistinguishable from embryonal, botryoid and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, is extremely rare or non-existent.

Cytology of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma: a cytologic, light microscopic, electron microscopic, and immunohistochemical study of seven cases.

A correlated cytologic and histologic study of seven cases of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is presented. The diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma was established by light and electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry of the operative specimens. The cytologic appearance of the smears corresponded well with the histopathologic findings. Cytologically, two main cell types were distinguished: a predominant primitive, small round cell with scant cytoplasm and a large cell with an abundant cytoplasm, sometimes tadpole- or ribbon-shaped. The tumor cells were often enclosed in a background of mucosubstances. The lack of cytologic features proving rhabdomyoblastic differentiation, such as cross-striation, necessitates the use of additional methods in the cytologic diagnosis of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. The value of the embedding technique for ultrastructural analysis and immunohistochemistry in the demonstration of desmin in aspirates is emphasized in the diagnosis of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma.

Alveolar soft part sarcoma. An immunohistochemical, cytologic and electron-microscopic study and a quantitative DNA analysis.

The type, differentiation and histogenesis of the tumor cells of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) have been analyzed in a series of ten cases by a light-microscopic, ultrastructural, immunohistochemical and cytologic investigation and quantitative DNA analysis. Four tumors deviated from ordinary ASPS: three were wholly or partly of the so-called pleomorphic variant of ASPS and a fourth tumor showed calcifications of the psammoma body type. The ultrastructural findings and immunohistochemical demonstration of desmin supported the hypothesis of a rhabdomyomatous differentiation and gave no support to epithelial (negative immunoreactions for cytokeratins, epithelial membrane antigen, HMFG-1 and -2, tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA] or neuroectodermal (negative for S-100 protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein, neurofilaments) differentiation. The negative immunoreactions for vimentin and myoglobin and the positive reaction for neuron specific enolase (NSE) do not exclude a rhabdomyomatous differentiation since in rhabdomyosarcomas the undifferentiated rhabdomyoblasts generally contain vimentin and the differentiated tumor cells contain myoglobin and rhabdomyosarcoma has previously been reported as being positive for NSE. The production of external lamina material peripherally in the tumor cell nests and around vessels in the vascular septa was demonstrated both ultrastructurally and by immunohistochemistry using antibodies against collagen IV and laminin. The cytologic appearance in smears obtained by fine-needle aspiration from a case of the pleomorphic variant showed some resemblance to that of a carcinoma. The seven tumors with an ordinary cell appearance were found to show a diploid DNA-distribution at a quantitative analysis performed on paraffin sections, while the three tumors wholly or partly of the pleomorphic type showed an additional tetraploid peak.
